Chilliwack River, November 11th 2010
« on: November 11, 2010, 03:21:28 PM »

had the day off so went to the river to see what i could catch, started in the upper river but I'm a noob and don't know good spots in the upper so didn't spend alot of time their so i left and went to the lower. on my way to the lower about a minute above the crossing i see a black bear crossing a side channel going towards the road. gotta be careful out there as just up the road there were guys fishing and people walking their dogs.


went to a spot in the lower and chucked some real nice roe out, after a few casts float goes down and a nice jack on but falls off at the beach. few minuets later float goes down again and i land another chrome hatchery jack and release it back into the flow. that was all for the day and defiantly my last trip to the vedder this season.

i couldn't resist going out today - so i did.

Fished upper river, landed 3 jacks, two were wild which were twice the size of the 3 hatchery jacks I've caught this season - wonder why that is? The hatchery jack I got today nibbled on my roe on 5 casts in a row haha. Also got a spring which was released and lost what I believe was a coho but all I saw was a reddish hue on the belly as it spat the hook.

While cleaning up some garbage this morning in the Lower I saw a fellow lose a fairly clean coho. He was casting a spoon in one of the pits.
